I like the art here, but I recognized it as DWJ's art. You've credited him and Rossmo as each doing ALL the art, which obviously isn't possible. So what exactly was the division of labor here? Btw, so great to always see how juiced up you get about this series!
Yeah, so its a tricky one when it comes to crediting options here. That top left panel is ALL DWJ with Tash and his daugther. The rest of the page is ALL Riley.
Now, as far as page layout I am assuming it was Riley first on these collaboration pages and then sent to Dan for him to draw his portion of the page (I feel like I head that in an interview somewhere, and that would make sense for Dan to then have all the completed pages including the ones that he drew solo). So its certainly possible Dan had to do some touch up work around Riley's lines here if there happend to be some overlapping, but I honestly can't tell.
Oh, interesting. Okay, now that I take a look at it with this knowledge in hand, I do see a difference in style, but only very subtly. Which goes with your mentioning how seamlessly they both worked together. Thanks, man!
Bascially, there's a real life story and the fantasy story running in parallel. DWJ does the real life parts while Rossmo handles the fantasy work. Both have heartfelt moments as there is a mystery of why they are tied. It's a title that's recommened for 2025.
Oh yeah! Now that you mention it, I'm reminded that Carl mentioned that there are 2 parallel to one another with each artist doing one of the stories, in one of his videos. Thanks for the reminder!
Wooo, Another one!!! Cool to see one of the pages where both creators had art duties on it like you had mentioned previously. Also I gotta steer clear of your descriptions and published versions of the OA pages with the dialogue, because I would like to get around to reading this one after the last trade is out! I am not a father/parent, so curious to see if I connect with it on that kind of level or not (my gut tells me not, but that doesn't mean I won't enjoy it).
